Howdy
folks! Sorry for the slight delay – I had wanted to upload my article
yesterday, but life happened… Besides, you can’t rush these
things – ask any fisherman you know… Or in fact, any artist… Yes, art and fishing can on occasion be surprisingly…
Intertwined… But you will have to scroll
down to see what I mean…
Apart
from the world of fishing flies, plenty else has been happening
this week… Have you seen the new cast for Ghostbusters? I think the idea of an all-female
Ghostbusting crew is AWESOME. Ok, it’s going to be interesting for the fans of
all the original stuff – mainly because we are used to a certain set of
characters though, not necessarily because of gender. I mean think about it –
if they were to announce, say, a cast of
random guys, neither looking like nor connected to the originals, we would have
reacted quite poorly to it, no? Exactly! And if we keep on
re-making basically the same movie
all the time (note that I said all the time – I am aware that there is a lot of
it about) where is the artistic challenge and innovation in that? I love it!
Bring it on!
Oooh, ooh
and did you see the new trailer for the Fantastic Four? Hang on, I have it here
somewhere…
What do you
make of it? Everyone’s first comment of course was that it looked nothing like
the franchise or indeed an action film of any kind and that it reminded one of
another quite recent science fiction film (*cough*Interstellar*cough*)… I mean
it looks to be an interesting movie if this is the style they’re going for…
Oh and last
of all check this one out…
I may be developing
a woman-crush on Maisie Williams… It’s a GOT thing… But yeah, spooky or
what? Having literally watched it an hour or so ago (and then having plunged
head-first into re-writes and editing without much time for actual thought –
the trailer is in here on a whim and not much else) I’m not sure what to make of it yet but I
definitely want to see it…
But enough
of all of that… On with the show… But if you are not sick of my ramblings yet,
may I recommend a little article I penned for Film Debate the other day?
It’s all about the internet and cinema…
Alternatively
head over to Critics Associated where I’m currently rambling on about French cinemaamong other things…
